There’s a hare-raising mystery in Easton.
Over the last several weeks, about three dozen rabbits have been mysteriously left outside a house in the northern section of town.
The most recent abandonment happened on Monday, when 21 shivering rabbits and five guinea pigs were found in a box outside the home.
The Connecticut Post reports that the homeowner does not want to be identified out of fear that more animals will be left at her home.
Hop A Long Hallow, a rabbit rescue group has been working with the homeowner to try to find homes for the animals.
"Rabbit abandonment happens all the time. Rabbits are the third most common pet behind dogs and cats" to be rejected by owners, Brandee McBride-LaCava, vice president of Hop A Long Hallow said. "People prohibited from having dogs and cats in their apartments or condos may keep rabbits as pets."
Anyone interested in adopting one of the abandoned rabbits should call Hop A Long Hollow at (203) 767-1150 or (203) 247-4661.
